:::What I asked for above was primary source data, Jack, Bobby, Ted, FDR, even Tip O'Neill (''Man of the House'') to verify your claim.

As for RobSmith's demand for primary sources he needs to read ''Hostage to Fortune: The Letters of Joseph P. Kennedy'' edited by Amanda Smith (2002) [[User:RJJensen|RJJensen]] 00:19, 29 August 2009 (EDT)
